538, Xiaohong Sends a Letter

Mrs. Ai is no longer the same person who only watched TV; her evolutionary speed from traveling the world these years has been astonishing. Previously, she was on a level similar to that of a small pet, just like Xiaofeng, but now she is at a level where she can actually hold a conversation, even though she still can't discuss everything like Jing Yuan could. At least, she now understands things well.

As for Xiaofeng, Gu Tao believed that she would still be the same even after three hundred years, as it was clear from the phoenix's attitude. She was the dummy among all those phoenix eggs. Handling Mrs. Ai had become challenging, requiring the use of standard strategies suitable for a girlfriend, but handling Xiaofeng was much simpler.

For instance...

"Have a pear, stop making a fuss," Gu Tao handed a pear to Xiaofeng, "After I finish talking with Mrs. Ai, I'll treat you to a late-night snack."
